Haiti's government has taken a key step towards holding long-delayed elections with the creation of a body which will oversee the polls, APA reports citing BBC.
The nine-member provisional electoral council - set up on Wednesday - has been tasked with organising elections by February 2026.
The last time Haitians voted someone into power was in 2016.
Since then, armed gangs have seized control of almost the entire capital, Port-au-Prince, as well as large swathes of rural areas of Haiti.
